Kanye West slammed for selling new Yeezy Gap collection out of trash bags
The rapper-turned-fashion designer is getting slammed online for selling his latest clothing collection out of trash bags.
“This is how they are selling Yeezy GAP,” a New-York based Twitter user captioned a photo showing disheveled merchandise stuffed into large black garbage bags on floor of Gap store
According to the eyewitness, “The sales associate said Ye got mad when he saw they had [his clothes] on hangers” because “this is how he wanted it.”
“They won’t help you find [your] size,” they added, “you just have to just dig through everything.”
The image sparked major backlash, with several critics slamming West’s “fetish” with using homeless people as “fashion muses.”
One person wrote, “This gotta be a social experiment,” while another joked, “Finally, something to satisfy my instinct to burrow.”
Last week, the 45-year-old father of four explained that his “biggest inspiration for all design” was “the homeless.”
